Email Upgrade

Just mentioned in another post that I received an email upgrade for our Aug 20 sailing on the Liberty. Went from inside deck 6 aft to oceanview midship deck 1 for $70.00.

My question is:

For those of you who have received these before, what are the chances we will get another one before sailing to upgrade us to a balcony?

have any of you received more than one upgrade email?

Are my hopes too high?

I think it all depends on how full the ship is.

These email offers with a specific amount are usually to upgrade within your category or inside to OV, never seen one with the amount for a balcony, usually they call to sell you on this more expensive upgrade.

Chances of getting one offer like this .. what about 10% at most (probably a lot less).. chances of getting two upgrade email offers .. Id say less than 1% .. but thats just a guess.

Iv been doing a lot of cruising and have not even gotten one email upsell offer... let alone 2 on the same cruise.

That's kind of what I figured. I should be happy with what I've been given..but it's just the nature of the beast, I guess...get more, want more!

I am so excited to get on that ship!!!!!!!!

slim to none but just think you got one, most never recieve any on each ship. have a great time.

In 4 cruises (and currently awaiting October for my 5th) I've been called once for an upsell that I turned down. Never an offer via email. Then again, since I never get an eComment Card after cruises, I'm assuming they have chosen to lose my email address.:rolleyes:

They can manage to find my e-mail a couple of times a week to send pitches for cruises, but they seem to loose it after each cruise so I don't get the comment card either. Not one in the last 5 cruises now. Do they really care what their customers care, I am not convinced that they do.

Would you upgrade from U18 to E61 on Inspiration?

What type of cabin is each and what is cost to do upsell.

U18 is porthole E61 is window and the charge is $40

Whenever they've called me to upgrade (about 3 times over 20ish cruises), they'll offer me something and I'll ask if something better is available. Doesn't hurt to ask...but one time I was offered and ocean view (from interior) and asked for something better and got a balcony for maybe $50 or more than what I would have had to pay for OV upgrade. Win!

Also, another time I was able to not only upgrade my room to a balcony, but also my parents' room.

Personally, I'm a balcony or bust person. The difference between interior and OV, to me, is not worth it, unless free. And even then I may not take it.
